Areas of Specialization

Holistic Therapy
Facilities that offer “holistic therapy” see and treat patients in the context of their entire lives and health status. They treat the “whole person,” not just the addiction.

Individualized Treatment
Some facilities have an addiction treatment protocol that all patients or clients are expected to follow, while others customize or individualize treatment based on a person’s unique needs and circumstances. Factors that may affect treatment decisions include age, lifestyle, medical conditions, type of drug, religious beliefs, etc.

ABOUT CAZENOVIA RECOVERY SYSTEMS - LIBERTY HALL

Cazenovia is a private nonprofit that provides residential services at a variety of locations in New York State for individuals who are struggling with problematic substance use and/or mental health disorders, and are at risk of homelessness. In addition to treatment services, the agency provides housing with varying levels of support, from intensive residential units to transitional housing.

Liberty Hall, located on the grounds of the Batavia VA Medical Center in northwestern New York State, is a community residence for male veterans struggling with substance use disorder who are homeless or at risk of becoming homeless, according to HUD standards. Under Cazenovia's definition, a "community residence program" offers highly structured care while allowing residents to hold a job. Treatment is slightly more intensive than a traditional transitional-living facility.

Liberty Hall offers trauma-informed support, in the context of individual and group counseling provided by both VA and Cazenovia staff. There are also on-site self-help meetings, though the facility's website does not at present specify whether these follow the 12-Steps or another program. In addition, the program provides vocational services, links to employment readiness programs, and training in daily living skills, stressing the importance of helping its clients to achieve independence. Subsidized housing is available for qualifying clients.

There is currently no information provided by the facility regarding its treatment staff, however, residents do have access to medical staff at the adjacent VA medical center.

ACCOMMODATIONS & AMENITIES

The program can accommodate up to 18 men at a time in semi-private rooms. The facility has a recreation area, however, there is currently no information provided by the facility regarding its living arrangements and related offerings.
